How to Use your hedge trimmer
1. Inspect area to be cut before each use - remove
objects which can be thrown or become entangled in
the cutting blades.
2. Always keep the hedge trimmer in front of your body.
Hold handle firmly with both hands and stand in a
secure and stable position.
3. Allow the cutting blades to reach full speed before
entering the material to be cut.
4. Always work going away from people and solid objects
such as walls, large stones, trees, vehicles etc.
5. If blade stalls, immediately stop the hedge trimmer.
Disconnect the hedge trimmer from the power source
and clear jammed debris from the cutting blades.
Inspect blades and repair or replace as needed.
To p Cutting
Use a wide sweeping motion. (M) A slight downward tilt
of the cutting blades in the direction of motion gives the
best cutting results.
Side Cutting
When trimming the sides of the hedge, begin at the bottom and cut
upwards (N),tapering the hedge inward at the top. This shape will
expose more of the hedge, resulting in more uniformed growth.
